  • 1.00 Credits

    The use of basic machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, drill presses, band saws, and grinders, including micrometers, vernier calipers, and other devices of use in a machine shop or laboratory. Welding techniques and tool making are also considered. When Offered: Fall, spring, and summer terms annually. Credit Hours: 1
  • 1.00 Credits

    A hands-on experience with electronic circuits and modern laboratory instrumentation. Motivates further study of engineering. The laboratory provides opportunities to build and test simple electronic circuits that illustrate basic concepts. A design project is included. When Offered: Fall and spring terms annually. Credit Hours: 1 Contact, Lecture or Lab Hours: 3 contact hours
  • 3.00 Credits

    Introduction to "real" (defect-containing) solids, and equilibria and kinetic processes in solids. Macroscopic properties, such as mechanical strength and electrical conductivity, are dominated by structure and bonding, and the course continuously emphasizes this connection. Each of the materials classes (metals, ceramics, semiconductors, and polymers) is discussed in detail in this context.Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: CHEM 1100. When Offered: Fall and spring terms annually. Credit Hours: 4 Contact, Lecture or Lab Hours: 5 contact hours
  • 4.00 Credits

    This design studio focuses on the product development process with an emphasis on problem definition and the impact that the designer has on the final outcome. Students are exposed to basic social science methods of observation and the role they can play in discovering and defining problems. Students are expected to develop a design from initial definition through actual use. Development of individual design skills in design development, presentation, and portfolio building are also emphasized. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: ARCH 2200, Design Studio, or permission of the instructor. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 4
  • 3.00 Credits

    A first course in engineering design which emphasizes creativity, teamwork, communication, and work across engineering disciplines. Students are introduced to the design process through a semester-long project which provides a design-build-test experience. Oral and written communication are important elements of the course. The course meets with ENGR 1010. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: ENGR 1100 and ENGR 1200. Corequisite: PHYS 1200. When Offered: Fall, spring, and summer terms annually. Credit Hours: 4 Contact, Lecture or Lab Hours: 6 contact hours
  • 4.00 Credits

    An integrated development of modeling-and problem-solving techniques for particles and rigid bodies emphasizing the use of free-body diagrams, vector algebra, and computer simulation. Topics covered include the kinematics and kinetics of translational, rotational, and general plane motion, energy and momentum methods, and single degree of freedom vibrations. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: ENGR 1100 and PHYS 1100. Corequisite: MATH 2400. When Offered: Fall and spring term annually. Credit Hours: 4
  • 4.00 Credits

    Application of control volume balances of mass, momentum, energy and entropy in systems of practical importance to all engineers. Identification of control volumes, properties of pure materials, mass and energy conservation for closed and open systems, second law of thermodynamics, Bernoulli equation, fluid statics, forces and heat transfer in external and internal flows, conduction and radiative heat transfer. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: ENGR 1100 and PHYS 1100. Corequisite: MATH 2400. When Offered: Fall, spring, and summer terms annually. Credit Hours: 4
  • 4.00 Credits

    Engineering laboratory introduction to the microprocessor as an embedded element of engineering systems. Students simultaneously develop the hardware and software of one or more target systems during the semester. Topics include concepts and practices of microcontroller hardware and software for command, sensing, control, and display. Specifically this includes control of dynamic systems and sensor interfaces; analog-digital conversion; parallel input/output; driver circuits, modular programming, and subsystem integration. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: a programming language, preferably C. When Offered: Fall, spring, and summer terms annually. Credit Hours: 4
  • 4.00 Credits

    Concept of stress and strain, generalized Hooke's law, axial load, torsion, pure bending, transverse loading, transformation of stress and strain components in 2-D, design of beams and shafts for strength, deflection of beams, work and energy, columns. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: ENGR 1100. When Offered: Fall, spring and summer terms annually. Credit Hours: 4
  • 3.00 Credits

    Appreciation and understanding of uncertainties and the conditions under which they occur, within the context of the engineering problem-solving pedagogy of measurements, models, validation, and analysis. Problems and concerns in obtaining measurements; tabular and graphical organization of data to minimize misinformation and maximize information; and development and evaluation of models. Concepts will be supported with computer demonstration. Applications to problems in engineering are emphasized. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: MATH 1010. When Offered: Fall and spring terms annually. Credit Hours: 3
